Dear Jim,

thank you for sharing your experiences. I can confirm the benefit of
your mindfulness practises from my experiences. The problem of tiredness
with long car rides I've answered by singing Mantras/Kirtans/Wazifas.
And in stress-situations, e.g. hospital-stay, breathing in-out,
smile-release, is a very helpful device for me.

in metta,
bernhard
